About Me

I am a motivated and organized student with a strong foundation in computer science and a passion for staying up-to-date on the latest technologies. With a background in self-taught web development and proficiency in Java, I am highly skilled in creating value-adding solutions and have a keen eye for detail.

As a mature student, I have demonstrated strong time management skills and the ability to work effectively under pressure, both in my current role maintaining a customer database and in my previous experience as a sous chef. I have excellent communication skills and am confident in collaborating with peers, management, and members of the public.
